Sense and purpose of the ISO/TS 16949 standard
What DEKRA offers you
The harmonised technical specification ISO/TS 16949 combines
the content of numerous international quality standards, including QS 9000 (USA), VDA 6.1 (Germany), EAQF (France) and
AVSQ (Italy). It is recognised worldwide by all the major car manufacturers and system suppliers.
With a consistently implemented quality management system to
ISO/TS 16949 you will increase your competitiveness, eliminate
weaknesses and increase your profitability. Certification by DEKRA will bring you further advantages:
The aim of the standard is to continuously improve process quality in the areas of development, production, installation and
maintenance. To this end, errors and risks in the production
process as well as in the supply chain are identified, documented
and eliminated.
The certification process for ISO/TS 16949 follows the structure
of ISO 9001. It is open to production parts suppliers and service
providers in the car industry. The certificate, for example bearing
the DEKRA Seal, nowadays often serves as the entry requirement
for supplying individual manufacturers or national markets.
